Leftovers, eh, not interested!

Happy Thursday, everyone :)

I was just chatting w/ a coworker about cooking and you know what, I'm bored of it.

Do some of you feel the same?

The other night, I bought some chops and veggies, I ate half a chop w/ two spoonful of veggies and I was done. I planned to take the rest to work as several days worth of leftovers, but I'm just not interested. As usual, they will just sit there until it's time to be thrown away. I simply, have no interest in leftovers. The intent is there, but the want dies after the first serving for dinner.

  • I love leftovers... sadly I have a teenage boy in my house. I haven't seen a leftover since he turned 13.

    I have to admit, if I had boundless energy, time, and budget, I would make new food for every meal, every day. LOL. But snap! That's not my reality. I'm getting to the point of being very tricky. For

    heycrystal2052, are you a leftover lover generally? I love them, but my wife and kid can't stand them. I have read that after surgery, some people don't like leftovers simply because of boredom. On

I am perfectly content with leftovers. I don't go out to eat much, but when I do I look forward to having multiple meals out of it. Sometimes it does last to long though and I end up throwing it out since I usually don't eat it every day.

Also I do not really like to cook, so when I do I prepare larger quantities. I'll divide it up and freeze it. Especially good for when I work, I just grab something from the freezer and I'm good to go.

I do need to come up with some different meals though since I find myself rotating through the same 4 days things

Actually, my boyfriend brought over some brisket and it was so dang good. I'm not used to beef anymore, but my pouch really enjoyed it. I'm having some for lunch and I'll have enough for meals during the weekend. Surprisingly, that thought doesn't turn me off. :D

@heycrystal2052 Briskettttttt...nommmmmm...:228_baby_chick:

We are leftover people. We eat the same thing for dinner Monday through Thursday. I have different lunches everyday though although my husband usually eats the leftovers from the previous week for lunch the next week. It is a budget thing for us and we don't mind. We get enough variety in our diet with breakfasts, lunches, and snacks. The dinner isn't that bad. Plus, it solves the question, "what's for dinner?" I plan out our meals months in advance.

LOL. Come on! How could you be (tired of them). LOL, I'd have to take you to the woodshed if you were! "I'm tired of brisket and ribs," said NO ONE ever! ;)
